Hi,

One of my Rutger Tomatoes grew a schnoz this year:

and I had a few Black Swallowtail caterpillars munching on the carrot
tops.

Hope you find these interesting

Thanks for these.

The caterpillar one is a real work of art.
There's more to Nature than our personal species interests!

Your welcome. I was happy to feed a few caterpillars soon to be
butterflies with my carrots. There just doesn't seem to be that many
around nowadays. Thought it was one of the little rabbits that were
getting through my fence at first...

Interestingly enough I didn't see/find a single Tomato worm this year.
That has never happened before in all the years we've had a garden and
tomatoes. Not even a hint of activity either. Sometimes I don't find
them even though I'm know they've been munching on my plants...
